CHICAGO, Ill, May 81 Receipts of wheat
to day were larger than expected, and esti-
mated also promised unusually large arrivals.
Heavy rains were also bearish in influences,
and the clique apparently had everything
against them. Tney were prepared for iJ,hoW
ever, and large number of June shorts, who
undertook to buy In their stuff easily TO- day,
had to pay higher prices for 1t early in the day
The clique contracted their efforts on the sup
port of June wheat, but were aided very ma.
terially IN sustaining the price of June by large
short interest among the crowd who under
took to cover, thereby bidding price upon them
selves June started at Ss5EC and in less than
fifteen minutes sOlI to S9c. Other options
opened barely steady, July being unchanged at
S5Hc. In the course of the first hours trading
June eased off ss&c, but July, which received
some support from the clique, sold up to &c.
However, as there was but little July only de
cllned 10 S55SC, and continued between that Il &
ure and S525c throughout the morning. June
was still &c at close of the morning session
The general covering of shorts in the aftern 0On
board induced higher figures on that option.
July advanced 20 and closed at S5c. June also
closed q fraction higher at SSKC. July corn
opened easier at 3a5gc; towards the close of the
forenoon corn became very weak, owing to es
small decrease in the visible supply. The
crowd was selling on the hypothesis
that at the present rate a. which
corn is arriving the visible supply will
show no Increase at all next week; July sold
down to 3s75c; during the afternoon 1t WAS
more steady, and closed higher at $3.50. Pro
visions opened frmer, with July lard at s. 511z
and July ribs at 81 Ia Toward the close Of
the morning session provisions beca ne weaker,
and July ribs sold down to 81 % and July lard
